Chapter 318: The Palace and the Title

When he came to Qin, the first thing Ernst saw was the railroad tracks under large-scale construction, thousands of workers who were in full swing, as long as they were three years old, they would be able to have Qin nationality, not to mention that they would still have a salary in these three years, so everything was worth it.

Working 10 hours a day, compared with the time stipulated by the Four-nation Alliance, it will be extended by 2 hours, and the salary is more than double that of the salary, but no one has any complaints, after all, there must be a difference between having a nationality and not having a nationality, otherwise how can you understand the importance of the nationality of the Qin State?

It's certain that they are very tired, but at the same time, their nutrition can completely keep up, the big bone broth at noon and the beef at night are prepared for them, and the cost of the Qin government for breakfast, noon and dinner alone is enough to make people staggering.

Ernst, who stepped on this land, asked about the details of these laborers, and the answer of the first assistant of the Qin State made Ernst quite satisfied, he didn't want to make anything angry, after all, the Qin State had just formed a one, and there was a possibility of complete collapse if he was not careful.

Stepping on the land of the East again, Ernst's mood was naturally a little excited, and everything strange and familiar in front of him made him very emotional, although some Chinese streets in Eastern Europe also have similar buildings, but this is very different from standing here in person, and a terrifying smell has been entangled in Ernst's side.

Shelafu Restaurant, grain shop, Chinese medicine hall, cloth shop, tea house, with the main street of Tokyo, in front of Ernst is a lively commercial street, of course, at this time Ernst is sitting in the car, the streets outside are blocked by the army of Qin, a large number of people are very curious to look here, look at Ernst in the car.

"That's our Emperor?"

"No, no, no, we should call him king, and some people call him the Great, the Grand Duke?"

The people whispered about Ernst, the master of Qin, and there was a hint of gratitude in their awe. After all, the current good life is brought by this person in the car, without him, then there would be no current Qin State, no current abundant food and clothing, and no peace.

One question and one answer has appeared in the hearts of many people, most of them do not understand the meaning of the Grand Duke, and it is difficult to imagine why they should claim to be dukes even though they are emperors. It was obvious that there was a clear difference between the duke and the grand duke they knew, but it would take some time for them to understand what it meant.

Most of the imperial palace of the Qin State has been completed. The periphery of it has been fully completed, and the rest are a few palaces. This is a typical oriental palace, with more than 300 palaces, although they are worse than the Forbidden City, but they can also rank among the top ten in the global architectural system.

The moat, the vermilion gate, the blue bricks and red tiles, the dragon and the phoenix are auspiciously carved, of course, most of them are still in a semi-finished state, if these details are all completed, it is estimated that it will take 20 years to wait, but a 20 years of carefully carved palace is also worth waiting, it is hard to imagine what a majestic building it is.

Xiaoxuan windows, yellow flower doors, small wooden chairs of red sandalwood, everything here looks very ordinary. But in fact, it is extremely luxurious, of course, because of the military strength of the Quad Alliance, these things actually do not cost much, and most of them are gifts from Southeast Asian countries.

Marble, wood from Southeast Asia, jade from Burma, and thirty kinds of beasts from India, perhaps the most expensive of them is manpower, but what is the most lacking in the current Qin State? It's manpower! The Great Qin Palace, worth hundreds of millions of euros, actually costs only a million euros, and of course this cannot be replicated, unless you also have the influence of Ernst.

Very satisfied, very satisfied. Ernst closed his eyes comfortably on the soft velvet futon, and the antique room with sandalwood was really comforting. The first assistant of the Qin cabinet and the officials of the cabinet have left, and now only Ernst is left here.

After all, the 20th century airliner is far inferior to the aviation tools of the 21st century, and the bumps are not very tiring, which is the main reason why Ernst sent those officials away, he really needs to rest.

There were a lot of people who stayed up that night, especially in the media industry. They need to focus on reporting everything about the Qin Emperor today, and there is an undercurrent between the various media at this time, and they all want to release their "exclusive" news as soon as possible, so as to win people's attention and increase their newspaper sales.

More fireworks were released on this night than during the Spring Festival, and Tokyo truly became the city that never sleeps, and Ernst's arrival led the government to declare the day a tax holiday. The antique market, the clothing market, the luxury goods market is still hot, especially the luxury market, and Tax Free Day means that they are saving more than they did in the past, which is a rare opportunity.

According to the statistics of private experts, the sales of the whole of Tokyo on this night were almost 3.8 million euros, which is an extremely terrifying figure, and the owner of a luxury store even confided that his store earned more than 2,000 euros that night, which is not the highest.

The benefit of 2,000 euros a night is rare even in Prague, that is, from this day on, Tokyo is extremely hot every year at this time and night, and this time is also an important time to promote Tokyo's economy.

Last night's popularity Ernst was naturally not clear, he only knew that he was resting very well, so good that when he got up in the morning to practice boxing, he even broke through his long-term immobile realm in one fell swoop, and several national art guards hurriedly helped Ernst to carry out the realm, but this also delayed Ernst's normal visit arrangement. Fortunately, Ernst was the emperor and king, not the capital and prime minister, and his arrangements could be changed at will, without being responsible to anyone at all. Of course, when it comes to diplomatic matters, then Ernst still needs to respect some rules.

At noon, Ernst, who was standing in the garden clearing, suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were shining, and his breath returned to complete his realm breakthrough, at this time Ernst could be regarded as a master more or less, although he was far from being compared with those old guys, but a dozen big men were at least not Ernst's opponents.

In fact, for Ernst, the role of personal force is really small, think about him, who has at least thirty or forty guards around him when he goes out casually, how can this person use force?

After the realm breakthrough is completed, Ernst naturally needs to meet the first assistant of the Qin State, after all, he has been drying the other party for a morning, and he can't always ignore the others, how to say that the other person is also the second person of the Qin State.

Gao Hong, the first assistant of the Qin cabinet, was one of the first Chinese to cross the ocean to Eastern Europe during the Moravian period, and he was still a student at that time, but after graduation, he chose to stay in the established Czech principality rather than return to the Manchu Empire, but it was this that started his brilliant life.

Starting as a small policeman, he successively served as the sergeant of the town police station, assistant to the mayor, mayor, assistant mayor, mayor, deputy minister of commerce of the Cabinet of the Czech Principality, minister of commerce of the Kingdom of Lithuania, minister of the Ministry of Resources of the Russian Imperial Cabinet, and chief assistant of the cabinet of Qin.

Speaking of Gao Hongcongee, he can also be regarded as Ernst's descendant, after all, whether it is the college he was born in or the time he followed Ernst, he is a well-deserved descendant, and in fact, Gao Hongcongee also treats the Habsburg family and Ernst according to the standards of the descendant.

His attitude played a very important role in this promotion, and a person who was not loyal to Ernst might have gained power for a while, but he would never have risen all the way up to the present. For example, the Prime Minister of the Lithuanian Cabinet, Artulas, was the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Lithuania from the beginning, and he still is, the position of First Prime Minister will never be his turn, and the position of the Council will not have his seat, or even ...... It is difficult for him to guarantee his own life after retirement, which is the difference between a descendant and a non-descendant.

What is the current title of Arturas? Just a mere count, and Massena was already a duke, and even the Russian Empire's Stennis. Mr. Gross is a marquis, and so is Gao Hongcong, but Arturas, although he occupies a high position and is called the second prime minister of the alliance, is in fact only a mere earl.

The position of the government is only temporary, but the title is permanent, although they will gradually lose the title as the inheritance passes, but that is at least a few generations later, and it is not the turn to start worrying about it now. Moreover, compared with ordinary citizens, they have a great advantage, as long as their descendants are more capable, there is no problem in ensuring the title of the family.

Massena has a son, who is now serving as Minister of Cabinet and Minister of Health in the Russian Empire, and although he is far away from his father, he is also a very capable fellow, and I believe that even without the protection of his father, he can still ensure that the family's title will not be lost.

In fact, now that little Massena already has the title of baron, I believe that over time he will be able to get an earl or even a marquis even without Massena, once Massena dies, how can Ernst reduce his title? Can only keep the title of duke.

The 1st Duke, the 2nd Marquis, the 3rd Earl, the 4th Viscount, the 5th Baron, the 6th Sir Knight, no matter how unlucky a family is, it is impossible to fall so bad that there is no capable person for six consecutive generations! Of course, the Quadruple Alliance's title is only allowed to be inherited by men, which is a disaster for those families with few personnel, especially since the royal family takes this aspect of scrutiny very seriously, and does not allow cheating at all.

Distant branches? I'm sorry, but the rule of the Four-Power Alliance is that it can only be inherited within three generations, and if it goes back to the time of the ancestors, then this rule might as well be abandoned! (To be continued.) )
